Fire Chief Magazine, each year, accepts entries from across the U.S. for the categories of New Career Station, New Volunteer Station, and Renovation for the Station Style Awards. This year, Rice Fergus Miller Architecture & Planning submitted the station for consideration for the prestigious award.

When informed of the honor, Mayor Cary Bozeman said “We are proud of our new fire station and just as proud that it was designed by our local architectural firm, Rice Fergus Miller.”

Fire Chief Al Duke was also pleased with the news, having a station that is nationally recognized by his industry and peers. “The station is amazing. Every aspect was discussed during the design of the building, and that is reflected in its functionality now. The citizens should be very proud of their station, and even more proud that it was designed by some of their own.”.
